<div class="section"><h3>Prerequisites</h3>
<p>Prior to using the Visual Studio installer plugin, make sure that you have the following installed on your system:</p>
<ol type="1"><li><a href=" http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index_jdk5.jsp"> JDK 5.0 Update x</a></li>
<li>Both <a class="externalLink" href="http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/downloads/default.aspx"> Microsoft .NET Framework</a> (2.0+) AND <a class="externalLink" href="http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/downloads/default.aspx"> NET Framework 2.0 SDK</a>. Note that the 2.0+ framework is required to run NMaven, but you can still target 1.1 for your builds provided that the 1.1 version is also installed.</li>
<li><a class="externalLink" href="http://nunit.org/index.php?p=download"> NUnit 2.2+ (only if using unit tests)</a>.</li>
<li><a class="externalLink" href="http://maven.apache.org/download.html"> Maven 2.0.4 or higher</a></li>
<li>Visual Studio 2005 Standard or higher is needed to use the NMaven Addin (Visual Studio Express Edition will not work)</li>
</ol>
<p>For the install only, you will also need to make sure that you have both the SDK and the .NET framework locations within your path. Typical locations include:</p>
<ul><li>install root: C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727</li>
<li>SDK root: C:\Program Files\Microsoft.NET\SDK\v2.0\</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="section"><h3>Installing</h3>
<p>If you have built NMaven locally on your machine, you can just type:</p>
<div class="source"><pre> mvn org.apache.maven.dotnet.plugins:maven-vsinstaller-plugin:install</pre>
</div>
<p>If you have not built NMaven locally and are just looking to use the binary distribution, then check out the instructions here: <a href="examples/install-from-remote-repo.html"> Install From Remote Repo</a></p>
